Chapter Forty-Eight: Disturbed Hearts
As soon as she was sent away by Broken Yu for two days, a call came from Jinling. Mrs. Meng still had that gentle and gentle tone, and expressed her apologies for Zhang Yan's carelessness, and asked Auntie not to worry about her face, and she would be severely punished if she made a mistake.
What Chang'e admires most is Mrs. Meng's judgment of the situation and her ability to bend and stretch. Zhang Yan is completely under her control, and Chang'e doesn't care about the new person, so she politely greeted Mrs. Meng for a while and hung up the phone.
Although Mrs. Meng always stared at the movements of the capital mansion, she never did anything superfluous, and although she felt uncomfortable, she still chose to turn a blind eye. After all. Mrs. Meng is not favored by her father-in-law, and the only heir Chen Yunhong values is Chen Xi, and she can understand Mrs. Meng's feelings.
Therefore, since Mrs. Meng was able to be honest with each other, Chang'e also let this matter go gently.
However, a few days ago, she and Zhong Wei secretly met, Chen Xi would definitely send someone to follow her, and I was afraid that Zhong Wei's life in the past few days would not be easy. She hooked her lips silently and picked up the telephone.
The phone on the desk rang twice, Chen Xi put down the pen in his hand and picked up the microphone: "Hey......" A delicate and soft, halva-like voice came from the earpiece: "Lord Husband, do you want to treat the barracks as your home?"
Chen Xi's cold and hard facial features softened a little, and there was a smile on his lips: "I thought Madame was having fun."
Sister's white and tender fingers were boringly around the telephone line, and when she heard Chen Xi's tone full of vinegar, her red lips curled, and she said sweetly: "Husband lets people stay alone, where do people get up happily."
The delicate words seemed to carry a small hook, Chen Xi's ears were numb, the muscles of his thighs tensed instantly, and he bit his cheeks and said, "I'll go back tonight."
The smile on the other end of the phone was delicate: "But husband, I am going to accompany Cousin Jenny tonight, she will marry Ye ...... in three days" The last word dragged a long tail note, Chen Xi's hand holding the phone receiver shook, and he almost dropped the receiver, he gritted his teeth and snorted coldly: "Wait for me at home honestly, dare to go to Jane Jenny's, I will personally carry you back."
Ao'e's goal was achieved, and the phone was directly deducted. She rubbed her brow and tugged at the bedside bell.
On duty today is a cold crisp. Compared with the eight-sided exquisite Feiqiong, the spicy and refreshing broken jade, and the empathetic Ruibai, Han Su is the one with the lowest sense of presence among the four big girls of Xi'e because of her taciturn personality. But she was very gentle and considerate. And never make a claim for herself, Auntie was just hurt by the broken jade, but she felt that this girl's silence became precious.
Han Su poured a glass of warm water for Chang'e, brought it to Chang'e, and spoke softly: "What does the master command?"
"Let the kitchen prepare a few more dishes commonly used by the young marshal tonight, and there must be no less roasted lamb leg and simmered deer tendon, and the young marshal will come back tonight to eat."
Han Su got the order, immediately went to the kitchen, and asked Chef Li to make two dishes of simmered deer tendons: one is chicken juice and abalone tendon, and the other is braised deer tendon with Cordyceps double flowers. It is obvious that he is familiar with the tastes of the male and female hostess.
Since Chen Xi decided to come back tonight, she didn't want to wear too casually if she hadn't seen her for a few days, so she deliberately changed into a new dress: a true purple water ripple Huanhua brocade one-shoulder long skirt, which showed her fair-skinned and slender neck well, and was covered with a white magnolia loose flower gauze dress, and her slender and rounded shoulders loomed.
Ruibai braided one of her green silk sideways into a braid, pinned it with a jade butterfly hairpin, and the end of her hair hung down on her chest.
Wearing soft-soled embroidered shoes on her feet, she went to the restaurant next door to her room, and she rarely went to the restaurant on the first floor unless necessary.
When she walked in, several maids were setting up dishes, and she glanced at the dishes on the table and nodded with satisfaction. I have to say that this girl is really careful.
However, after waiting for an hour, Chen Xi had not come back, and Chang'e had no patience, and lost her appetite after a few movements of the chopsticks, so she told the girl to remove the dishes.
She went back to the room, took off her clothes angrily, and ordered Han Shu: "Throw it out and burn it."
Auntie was angry, and Han Su didn't dare to disobey, so she had to send a little girl to take her clothes out and pinch her shoulders when she changed into bedclothes.
If it were another girl, I was afraid that she would change her way to please her at this time, whether Han Su was so quiet that she had almost no sense of existence, or did the palace fan come in to break the silence of this room. "Master, the young marshal said that he won't come back for dinner tonight."
Auntie snorted coldly, the book in her hand fell to the ground, she never thought that Chen Xi would release her pigeons. "Call Ju Huo in." She commanded coldly.
Ju Huo entered the house, leaned over and whispered a few words in her ear. Auntie's hand holding the handkerchief tightened instantly, and a chill was dyed in her eyebrows: "Come on, change clothes!"
She wore a long silk dress with a golden collar, matching gold and pearl jewelry, and even a butterfly flower gold pearl diamond hairpin on her long hair was coiled up. Ju Huo put on her high heels, draped a cream-white coat over her, and helped her hand out of the bedroom.
She got into the car and told the driver, "Go to the military headquarters." The driver was stunned for a moment, but he knew that the young lady had a good character, and although he was suspicious, he could only do it.
The Young Marshal's Mansion was not far from the military headquarters, and the car drove for an hour and a half before finally stopping in front of the barracks. Zou Cheng, who was sitting in the co-pilot, hurriedly went down to negotiate, and after a while, the car was released. Zou Cheng secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead before getting into the car, and when he was on an errand with the young lady, he must have a strong heart.
The car drove unhindered and stopped in front of a small four-story building in the barracks. Xiao'e helped Ju Huo's men get out of the car, and before she stepped on the steps, the guards at the door showed their bayonets, and Zou Cheng, who was following her beside her, scolded angrily: "Blind your dog's eyes, this is the young marshal's wife."
Auntie carried her skirt up the steps, and the two guards wanted to stop her, but Ju Huo took out a pistol from her body, pointed the black muzzle at the guard's head, and shouted: "Get out!"
Auntie led people up to the fourth floor, the corridor was winding, and there was a hole in it. She followed the sound to a stop in a room at the end of the hallway, and glanced at Ju Huo, who slammed the door open.
The sound of rubbing hemp inside suddenly paused, and Auntie glanced at the incomparably fragrant scene in the room, and her eyes as cold as snow fell on Chen Xi in the middle.
Chen Xi sat next to a beautiful girl who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a maple red sleeveless high-slit cheongsam, revealing a pair of snow-white shoulders and thighs, the girl had a plump goose egg face, a slightly plump nose, fleshy red lips were naturally upturned, a pair of big apricot eyes showed an innocent look, there was a red tear mole under the corner of the left eye, and the breasts were thin and the waist was thin.
The girl put a pair of arms on Chen Xi's shoulders, and when she saw Chang'e breaking in violently, a pair of apricot eyes suddenly showed a look of fear, and her soft body leaned hard against Chen Xi.
The people in the room were caught off guard by the killing of Auntie, and those who reacted quickly quickly got up and called the young lady.
She hooked her lips coldly, the two looked at each other, and she took the lead in retracting her gaze as if she had seen something dirty, she walked to the mahjong table in a few steps, and her hands with pearl lace gloves were forced, and the mahjong table was overturned by her, and the mahjong hula on the table fell to the ground. Unable to understand her hatred, she snatched the gun from Ju Huo's hand and aimed it at Chen Xi......
Seeing this, Chen Xi's personal guards pointed their guns at Xi'e with a brush.
Chen Xi said sharply: "Put the gun down!"
Everyone present thought that the young marshal was talking about the young lady, until a "bang" gunshot, Chen Xi shot one of the guards in the arm, and scolded: "Let you put the gun down, your ears are deaf!"
Only then did everyone react, and they couldn't help but stand there in fear.
The wounded guards were dragged down.
Auntie threw the gun and slapped Chen Xi in the face, without waiting for Chen Xi to get angry, she had tears in her eyes, and her sweet voice was extremely sad: "I waited for you at home for more than an hour, this is what you said about urgent military affairs, you actually lied to me!" You lied to me......"
Auntie covered her mouth sadly, crystal tears rolled across her cheeks, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it indiscriminately, her voice was thick and tired: "I'll go back to Yuncheng tomorrow."
Chen Xi's left cheek was so hot and painful that he didn't care about being embarrassed, so he rubbed his eyebrows with a headache: "I'll arrange for someone to send you back."
Auntie glanced at him coldly, and there was no longer the tenderness and sweetness of the past in her bright eyes, but instead there was indifference in the ice and snow.
Her eyes fell on the girl who was trembling like a young beast struggling powerlessly, her red lips were slightly upturned, and her voice was like melted honey as if it was not her who was angry and crying just now, and she smiled softly: "The one who is happy is the young marshal." After speaking, he turned around and walked away without any delay.
In the car, no one dared to speak, and her eyes fell on the boundless darkness outside the car window, obviously she didn't care, but why was she still angry and sad! She covered her cold jade face blown by the night breeze with one hand, and let the tears fall all over her face.
When she returned to her room, she withdrew from all her subordinates, and she stuffed herself into the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, Feiqiong, who came to check on whether she was sleeping well, found that her master had a fever, and hurriedly called the family doctor who lived in the annex building. She was groggy and groggy until the next morning.
The headache was terrible, and her throat hurt so badly that she tried her best to ignore the discomfort coming from her body, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to tell her subordinates to clean up her things. She couldn't stay in this mansion for a second now.
Feiqiong was worried about her body, and risked death to persuade her: "Master, your illness is not yet well, don't be in a hurry, why don't you go to Emerald Mountain Villa to live for a while?" The house has been cleaned a long time ago, the place is big, and there is a conservatory......"
Auntie interrupted her: "I have made up my mind."
"But ......"
"No, but." Auntie looked indifferent.
